Triple resonance pulse programmes for13C,15N labelled proteins


The pulse programs (Bruker DRX format) presented here are triple resonance experiments for the assignment of 13C,15N labeled proteins. Most of them incorporate a heteronuclear gradient echo for coherence selection for the 15N --> 1H transfer and are combined with sensitivity enhancement and water- flip-back where appropriate.

Offset is the difference between the centers of the CO chemical shifts (175ppm) and the CA (55ppm) or aliphatic carbon (40ppm) chemical shifts (120/135ppm).
Pulses that are applied to compensate for Bloch-Siegert phase shifts are denoted BSP.
